January 27, 2012 - Traffic Trails (by Mike Nice)

Light trails mark the traffic rolling into town from 385 on a rainy evening.   Many of them are heading toward the Bi-Lo center for an event – some of them are turning into the Church Street parking garage on the right.   The Bi-Lo center is hosting a Monster Jam event tonight and tomorrow night.

Fans of the North Carolina-based Cook-Out restaurants were very happy when this Cook-Out recently opened across from the Cherrydale shopping center, on Poinsett highway.    They offer a variety of fast food, specializing in burgers and shakes.

The lights at the Trio Restaurant are very inviting on a rainy evening, as pedestrians need umbrellas to stay dry.

January 23, 2012 - Wet Seat (by Mike Nice)

“Joel Poinsett” had to sit on a wet bench this weekend, because there was more rain than usual.  The rain is welcome however.   The last report from the SC Climate office listed Greenville county as having a moderate drought condition.  The statue of Joel Poinsett is located in front of the Poinsett Hotel on Main Street.

January 21, 2012 - Art on the walls at Addy’s Dutch Cafe (by Denton)

Art on the walls at Addy's Dutch Cafe in downtown Greenville. This photo was taken by Denton Harryman.


We enjoyed a great meal at Addy’s Dutch Cafe last night and also enjoyed the art on the walls. Local Greenville residents know that Addy’s serves the best soups in town. Last night we had a muster, brie, and white asparagus soup. In fact Addy’s soups are so good you can put your name on a list to be notified when he makes on of your favorites … You may remember these past photos from Addy’s. Very cool lights at Addy’s ~~ Brown Street and Coffee ~~ blue shutters ~~ and art work in progress.
